An hour passed in the blink of an eye, and the lame Taoist appeared beside the carriage as promised.
The lame Taoist said:
"Xu Xian, have you made your choice? In fact, Pindao is looking forward to fighting alongside you."
Xu Xian said:
"Different paths lead to mutual agreement. Maybe we can be friends, for example, fair-weather friends."
For the sake of Jiulian, Xu Xian did not want to make the relationship with the lame Taoist too tense.
There is not much hatred between the two sides and they do not necessarily have to be on opposite sides.
Even for Jiulian, Xu Xian was willing to make some compromises.
The lame Taoist said with a smile:
"Is it the kind of thing where you stab your friend in the back when he's not prepared?"
Xu Xian said:
“Friends are not necessarily meant for betrayal, they can also be for mutual benefit.”
The lame Taoist's face turned gloomy, as if he was trapped in distant memories, and said:
"Pindao once thought Sanqing was a friend, but in the end, Pindao was tricked by them and lost miserably.
From then on, Pindao vowed not to trust his friends anymore, and Pindao wanted to take control of the situation.
The conditions are still the same. If you worship Pindao as your teacher and swear allegiance to Pindao, you can get the Nine-Rank Lotus Platform, and Pindao will help you become a saint. "
Xu Xian said:
"Unfortunately, I cannot agree to your conditions. No normal person, let alone me, can agree to your conditions."
"Understood, you can't accept Pindao's conditions so quickly, because you haven't been forced into a corner yet."
The lame Taoist was not surprised by Xu Xian's choice. A smile uglier than crying bloomed on his face full of pain. He looked at Jiulian and said:
"Xu Xian has already made his choice. Pindao admires his frankness. Now it's your turn.
Do you choose to continue being Xu Xian’s daughter? Or be a nine-grade lotus platform, a magic weapon for poor Taoists?
A gentleman has the beauty of an adult, but a poor man is not a gentleman. I hope you can help the poor man attain enlightenment, and maybe I can help you. "
The lame Taoist was testing him. If Jiulian chose Xu Xian, he would definitely be destroyed by the lame Taoist in a rage, and he would end up with both body and spirit destroyed.
Because, like a resentful woman, the lame Taoist was complaining about being betrayed by the Sanqing Dynasty, and could no longer tolerate any betrayal.
Without waiting for Jiulian to answer, Xu Xian said:
"Nine Lotuses are your magic weapon, the Nine-Rank Lotus Platform, must I choose you?"
"Xu Xian, your words cannot represent its choice. I want to know its choice."
The lame Taoist used it to refer to Jiu Lian. He did not think that Jiu Lian was a human being, but only thought that Jiu Lian was a nine-grade magic weapon.
The lame Taoist said with a sinister smile on his face:
"Choosing Xu Xian seems to be what you want."
Jiulian ignored the lame Taoist, looked at Xu Xian calmly, and said:
"Dad once taught Lian'er a poem. The poem was called: Once upon a time, the sea was difficult to overcome, except for Wushan, it was not cloud.
Lian'er didn't understand it very well at the time, but now she understands..."
Jiulian's choice is too dangerous, and the lame Taoist will be wiped out in a rage.
Xu Xian didn't want Jiulian to continue talking and said:
"Dad also taught you that there is hope only if you are alive. If you are talking nonsense here, if the Taoist priest misunderstands, you will be in trouble.
Lian'er, listen to your father and make the right choice. "
"Xu Xian, don't interfere with its choice. It still likes to be with you and doesn't want to change back to the Nine-Rank Lotus Platform."
The lame Taoist said:
"You don't need to say any more, Pindao already knows its choice.
For the sake of helping Pindao attain enlightenment, Pindao will give you a chance now.
Pindao is in a bad mood right now. He wants to kill someone, but he doesn't want to do it himself. If you are willing to kill a thousand civilians for Pindao, I will help you. "
Xu Xian and Jiulian were stunned by the lame Taoist's brain circuit!
The lame Taoist looked at Jiulian and smiled sadly:
"Pindao will give you a chance now. If you massacre a thousand civilians in Hangzhou City, Pindao will let you live and give you to Xu Xian.
If you can't do it, Pindao will destroy you physically and mentally. This is the consequence of betraying Pindao. "
The lame Taoist wants to destroy Jiulian, who was transformed by Xu Xian into having a sense of right and wrong. What he needs is Jiulian who obeys orders.
After Jiulian massacred the civilians, if he still had a sense of right and wrong, he would definitely be troubled by inner demons and completely collapse.
If Jiulian could not care about the sins she was contaminated with, Xu Xian's influence on her would completely disappear. Jiulian would be ashamed of Xu Xian and would once again become his magic weapon, the Nine-Rank Lotus Platform.
Jiulian knew her fate. No matter what she chose, she would never be with Xu Xian again.
Either his body and soul will be destroyed, or he will become a person that Xu Xian hates.
Jiulian burst into tears and cried:
"Dad, what should Lian'er choose? Lian'er doesn't know. Lian'er doesn't want to leave dad, and Lian'er doesn't want to be destroyed physically and mentally."
The lame Taoist laughed wildly and said:
"Xu Xian, you have another choice, which is to slaughter a thousand civilians. You completely abandon your way and join my camp.
Only in this way can I terminate my contract with Jiulian, give her to you, and help you become a saint. "
Xu Xian didn't want to kill innocent civilians, nor did he want to see Jiulian kill innocent civilians, but he also didn't want Jiulian to disappear completely.
Between a thousand innocent civilians and Jiulian, of course he chose Jiulian.
The problem is not about a thousand innocent civilians. As long as Xu Xian agrees to the lame Taoist, it means that the opponent has caught his weakness. The lame Taoist may let Xu Xian kill 10,000 civilians in the future, or even kill 100,000 or one million civilians.
The system asked Xu Xian to cultivate merit. When Xu Xian couldn't keep the bottom line and started killing innocent people indiscriminately, Xu Xian's way no longer existed.
The system is designed to deprive Taoists who lead the way and Taoists who are quasi-ti of their status as saints because they have crossed the line.
The internal conflicts between the Western religion and the Three Pure Ones are not resolved internally. Instead, they collude with extraterrestrial demons to bring disaster to the entire Three Realms.
If Xu Xian helps Jiulian massacre a thousand innocent civilians, it means that Xu Xian, like Taoist Jie Yin and Taoist Zhunti, cannot hold the bottom line, will lose the system, and will still be unable to protect Jiulian.
Xu Xian said:
"Lian'er, no matter what decision you make, dad will never blame you.
In order to survive, even if you do something wrong, it is understandable. "
Xu Xian said that if Jiulian did not want to be destroyed physically and mentally, he could choose to agree to the conditions of the lame Taoist.
Jiulian smiled sadly and said:
"Lian'er remembers that father wanted Lian'er to be a good person and to distinguish right from wrong. Lian'er didn't want to disappoint her father."
Jiulian made a choice, which meant she violated her contract with the lame Taoist. She slowly became illusory and would completely disappear between heaven and earth.
At this moment, the cold mechanical voice of the system sounded:
"Jiulian chose to do good, received the blessing of heaven, and gained a glimmer of hope.
Jiulian, if you are willing to integrate into the Nameless Divine Sword and help Xu Xian attain enlightenment, the day Xu Xian attains enlightenment will be the day you are reborn. "
"I do!"
Jiulian was overjoyed. At the moment when he completely disappeared, he flew towards the nameless divine sword that was looming in front of Xu Xian, and slowly blended into it.
“If you don’t break, you won’t stand.”
The only way for Jiulian to break away from the control of Taoist Jieyin is to transform into Taoism, return to its origins, integrate into the Nameless Divine Sword, and prove Taoism with Xu Xian.
A lame Taoist can destroy the Nine-Rank Lotus Terrace, but he cannot destroy the origin of the Nine-Rank Lotus Terrace.
The Nine-Rank Lotus Platform is part of the Creation Green Lotus and has the ability to purify everything in the world.
The Nine-Pin Lotus Platform is more important to the Western religion than the leader, because it is the magic weapon of the Western religion to suppress luck, directly affects the foundation of the Western religion, and determines the development of the Western religion.
Because of Jiulian's betrayal, the lame Taoist destroyed the Ninth-Rank Lotus Platform in a rage, but he could not destroy the origin of the Ninth-Rank Lotus Platform, and unexpectedly succeeded in marrying Xu Xian and Jiulian.
The Nameless Divine Sword is integrated into the origin of the Nine-Rank Innate Treasure Lotus Platform, which is part of the origin of the Creation Green Lotus. It will also have the opportunity to become an innate treasure in the future.
As the master of the Nameless Divine Sword, Xu Xian also has a great chance of becoming a saint in the future.
The lame Taoist suddenly realized that he finally understood that all this was Hongjun's conspiracy. He couldn't help being furious. He looked up at the sky and cursed angrily with his halberd finger:
"Hongjun, you are so despicable. You can't kill Pindao, you can't take away everything Pindao has, so with this despicable method, you tricked Jiupin Lotus to betray Pindao?
Remember Pindao, who took away the Nine-Rank Lotus Platform. Pindao will definitely take revenge. Pindao will not only destroy the entire Piaomiao Realm, but also destroy the entire Three Realms. Pindao will destroy everything you protect. "
